yo
was watching a stream on twitch.tv and saw none other than mother****in Patashu in chat...then i suddenly remembered FFR/SM so just thought i'd check up on my (formerly) fellow keyboard warriors
it's been like two and a half years, but i recognize a handful of people still posting here. how's it been? guess i'll go ahead and add that if there's anyone still here i was at odds with from back whenever, i'd like to apologize for being an immature prick. snotty egotistical adolescent and internet don't mix well, for sure haha anywho, i don't intend on returning to the arcane art of fingering keyboards...just a distant spectator now, if anything tl;dr what's up? |

Re: yo
Oh hi there, people still play stepmania, and some got ridiculously good too

Re: yo
stepmania isn't dead—we are pumping out more simfiles and megapacks than ever before
and people have achieved a new set of high standards for skill (MA and Speed) |

sup ieat!
As I've been stating since 2007/2008, Stepmania is NOT dead. It definitely got quieter in that period but at some point activity has picked up not only in simfile artistry but also in competitive rivalry. Players like Dossar, Isaac, and leonid have been re-defining what a AAAable or even FCable file is. Getting scores that rival or beat Thaor or Wooke's best scores. (Almost There/Gigadelic/Superluminal approach AAAs and Counting Snow/Frictional Nevada for FCs respectively to name a couple) Alexdest, Puppet, GundamDude, samurai, and I suppose I could include myself have been attaining midare or even Nima-like MA. See Puppet's 0x1311 14 perf or Alexdest's 11 perf Psicicite for that Then there's Speed/Stamina Gods like Staiain and more recently kaiten whom I never knew ended up being a beast. Destroying Thaor's Blue Planet and getting insane rate scores/passes. The first group of players I listed should be included in this list as well. The bs alarms aren't raised nearly as much anymore since making vids has become increasingly easy with the evolution of smartphones and such, most players are respected and have all been proven legit from multiple vids, some of which have met in person and played together. Just to end this blab I will agree the influx in the quantity of stepfiles and packs have definitely increased. However, with the pool of simfiles growing ever larger, so does the number of simfiles that I would consider 'unappealing'. There are almost an infinite number of japanime files of the style that only Zaghurim or Kilga could have hoped to have popularized to this degree now and I don't care too much for them. That being said, many files ARE of high quality and innovation and shouldn't take away from the fact that stepping files is much more refined and mastered. |
